Chapter 9: The Cunning Bao Zheng

Shen An declined all kinds of food invitations, but there was an uncle who insisted on marrying his daughter to him, which made him a little troubled.

I'm only fourteen!

The age of marriage for men in the Great Song Dynasty seems to be sixteen years old......

Guoguo stood beside him, raised his head and shouted, "My brother doesn't marry!" ”

Belch!

Shen An and the uncle were relatively stunned, and then laughed together.

His stove is still there, even the iron pot is intact, and there are dozens of potstickers on it.

"No one said you were setting up a stall here last night!"

A merchant said firmly: "Whoever dares to speak out, we will kill him!" ”

Shen An stood in front of the stove, looking at the enthusiastic people in front of him, and suddenly felt that there were many things worth remembering about this Great Song.

It's warm!

When he saw Bao Zheng in plainclothes, Shen An smiled.

Very warm smile.

Everyone has their own perseverance.

"You're too bold."

Bao Zheng stretched out his hand to touch the top of Guoguo's head and said: "Although Shen Bian is a little deviant, he is not as bold as you, at least he doesn't dare to shoot the eagle of the Liao envoy in the street." ”

Shen An said lightly: "My father did not harm any interests of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Bao Zheng wanted to refute, but finally laughed at himself: "You are just a child, and some things are not as simple as you imagined." ”

Shen An said: "I know that it is the rule of the ancestors to use literature and martial arts. ”

Bao Zheng nodded and smiled.

"But time has changed, the Western Xia and the Liao people are two hungry wolves, God knows what more enemies will be in the future, what will the Great Song Dynasty bring to suppress the warriors?"

Bao Zheng's face changed slightly, and he said, "What nonsense! ”

Shen An smiled and stopped talking about this.

"Congratulations to Bao Qingtian, whose reputation resounded in the sky again."

Last night, Bao Zheng's bravery of not retreating was shocking, and the hard-boned Bao Qingtian moved Shen An.

Bao Zheng's face was uncomfortable, don't go over.

Lao Bao can be shy?

Shen An thought it was funny.

"You've got a good poem."

Bao Zheng's reintroduction of the old matter made Shen An raise his vigilance at once, and then asked: "Does Bao Longtu want to settle accounts after the autumn?" ”

Bao Zheng shook his head, "The official asked who the vendor who shot the Liaoren Eagle Falcon last night was, but the old man said that he didn't see it clearly. Shen An...... You seem to be kind, but the old man knows that you are dangerous. ”

Guoguo took Huahua to the back, and Bao Zheng raised his voice and said, "You will be demagogic." It's a skill, big or small. If it is used to deceive the foolish people, it will be a disaster for the country. You should go to the exam, officialdom will make you forget all ambitions......"

"I'm not ambitious."

Shen An retorted: "I have never had any ambitions, and inciting the hawkers is just to deal with those splashes and find some foreign wealth for themselves by the way, which is not as insidious as you think." ”

Bao Zheng smiled, pointed at Shen An and said, "Doing one thing can not only deal with splashing, but also make money, what is this?" That's what it's capable of. The old man is old, and he has seen many capable people, young men like you...... That's it, wicked boy! But the Great Song Dynasty is not the death of the country, so you can do it yourself, if you want to take the exam, you can come to find the old man, and the old man will recommend it to you. ”

The imperial examination of the Great Song Dynasty started from the liberation examination, that is, the township examination, but there was no county examination or government examination below, relying on recommendation.

Without recommendation, even if you are overwhelmed, you can only dig and farm at home with grievances.

Shen An shook his head, and Bao Zheng finally said: "If you can roll your name outside the Donghua Gate, you will definitely be able to become the pillar of the Great Song Dynasty in twenty years, if the old man is still alive at that time, he will also crawl to congratulate you, congratulations to the Great Song Dynasty!" ”

Test wool!

Shen Anxin secretly laughed heartily.

Bao Zheng took a step, glanced back at Shen An, and asked, "The Inspection Department and the Splash Pi colluded with each other, what do you think should be done?" ”

Shen An subconsciously said: "Send someone to go undercover in the splash, or directly buy the splash, and when you get the news, you will do it, and you must be ruthless, so that the successor will not dare to cross the thunder pool for half a step...... Hiss! ”

How dare the old guy me?

Looking at Bao Zheng with a bitter and hateful face, Shen An felt that he had underestimated the wisdom of this era.

Bao Zheng sighed: "Your mind is full of intrigues and tricks, isn't it good to be upright?" If you have to go undercover, it's not a good thing to hear. And to buy the splashing skin...... If you are free, the old man will guide you again and let you be a new person. ”

Shen An watched Bao Zheng walk away dumbfounded, wanting to scold but didn't know what to scold.

"Brother, write."

Fortunately, there is a studious younger sister who makes Shen An feel very comforted.

The two went home, and the landlord was receiving the new tenants.

“…… It's not that the old man is boasting, in Bianliang City, even the prime minister has to rent a house, so it's only ten yuan a month, which is already very cheap. ”

The new tenants turned out to be two women, one in his early twenties, beautiful, beautiful, but also arrogant.

The other is not a woman, a girl in her teens, older than Shen An, but now she is old enough to be a mother.

"Azhu Niangzi, what you want is three rooms, no, you can ask Shen An, how much is his room."

The landlord uncle, who used to be very charitable, has become a little cunning at the moment, but Shen An is not willing to get involved in such things.

The woman named Ah Zhu raised her eyebrows slightly, opened her mouth slightly, and said coldly: "Then so be it." ”

I'll go!

Renting a house and renting out the presidential suite is self-conscious.

"Brother, I'm afraid!"

Guoguo migrated with Shen An along the way, and saw all kinds of people, and was very sensitive to some breaths.

This is a proud and proud woman, and the half-grown woman who looks like a maid also has nostrils facing the sky, and the temperament of the master and servant adds up to four words.

Don't get close to the living!

"Let's practice calligraphy!"

Shen An is only fourteen years old now, and the attraction of the opposite sex to this body is not so great.

Ah Zhu glanced at the Shen An brothers and sisters who went in, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, a little disdainful.

After practicing the words for half an hour, Shen An told Guoguo a story.

“…… The wicked queen caught the princess and kept her under her watch, and if she didn't finish a bowl of rice every meal, the queen would clean her up......"

Guoguo leaned on his brother's arms and pouted dissatisfiedly: "Brother, there are more." ”

Shen An thought for a while and continued: "Later, there were seven dwarfs who wanted to rescue the princess, but they became short because they were picky eaters, and they were kicked out by the queen one by one......"

Guoguo said gloomily: "Brother, I want to eat." ”

It was almost noon, Shen An lit the small stove with a smile, and then started cooking.

The front yard is now occupied by Shen An and the two new women, and Da Song's current habit is to have two meals a day, and there is no such thing as lunch.

The smoke of the cooking was faint, Shen An put down the shredded meat, added cabbage and stir-fried, although there was not much seasoning, but because of the excellent raw materials, it was very fragrant.

He made two dishes, and finally finished with egg soup.

He moved the table out, and Guoguo struggled to carry the small stool, and then saw the two women by the door looking at this side in surprise, and smiled a little proudly.

"Brother, eat."
